Touch Screen Replacement

It may be necessary to replace the printer touch screen if it is damaged or if it experiences a failure.

To replace the LCD touch screen on your printer:

Power off and unplug the printer

Remove any Plastic and Fiber materials as well as the print bed.

Tape the lid and front shield of the printer closed to prevent them from accidentally opening.

Turn the printer upside down so the bottom is facing up.

Remove the 10 screws that hold the bottom panel in place.

The Touchscreen and BeagleBone will be centered and toward the front of the printer.Note: The metal cover over the BeagleBone may be Black, Silver or Orange. The color has no bearing on these instructions.

Disconnect all of the cables on the left and right sides of the BeagleBone with the exception of the gray cable. Remove the gray cable from the motherboard rather than from the BeagleBone.

Pull up on the BeagleBone case to remove it from the touchscreen. If necessary gently rock the BeagleBone left and right to loosen it.

Remove the 4 screws holding the touchscreen to the printer frame and put them aside.
